Lyrics:
I'm not sleeping
I'm staring at the ceiling
My mind's a thousand miles away
I'm finding faces in the shapes
of plaster that was scraped on the ceiling
Killing time is not so bad
but when you're trapped inside your head…
start here at the airport
feels like im going blind
middle of the day in a dark bar
1000 miles away from peace of mind
im tring to remember
when i was a kid
did the sun set in my back yard
i think it did
what comes before and goes on…
Man this is incredible. The off kilter feeling of the music belies the deeply personal lyrics. Like being in a funhouse with a slanted floor, but someone is crying in the distance.
Nice one - move over Serge Gainsbourg & Jacques Brel!
I wish I could speak French - I love Francoise Hardy, Michel Polnareff and France Gal, l but I can't understand a bloody word!
You really want to get there, but you just can't find it, but the ride is entertaining.
I'm rewriting the lyrics. It's not quite oblique enough, or so I'm told.
nearly there!! running out of time and could i get this recorded to a click??! Hell no, so i did it live and it shows. ah well, it has a certain charm!

Beautiful. I love the "future...future...FUTURE...future" etc. Nice subtle wit, and great instrumentation.
i always like the acoustic mixed with fat electronic rhythms.
Mike Tyson's Punchout! Ha! It took me about a minute to catch the reference.
You did a wonderful job with the album. It works as a whole so well. I love how several of the tracks find a hidden melody and riff on it.
Amazing track. I love when the low end takes over about halfway in, then a bit later, the almost wahwah/trombone sounds. So great.
Great track - very original and well over the edge.
Too beautiful.
What a great sound - love the harmonies and the guitar solo is swell. I have a feeling you gus are just a little crazy.
Excellent vocal and the perfect accompaniment. Really enjoyed this track.

Hope this isn't about my driving. We don't have a hell of a lot of oblique shit in Anchortown, but sometimes we drive that way.
Liked this one. I can think of some folk to apply it to.
Charm is right. This is remarkably warm and personal sounding. I quite like it!
Lovely melody, stripped down to its essentials. I love the moment when the organ comes in.
Love it: absolutely great work. I love the focused randomness of it. the keyboard "solo" at 1:10=beautiful.
great instrumentation! The lap steel(?) and organ are especially great.
